This is nice. Old shows were 25+ minutes long. Only five minutes of commercials in the entire half hour.

We were talking about the Dick Van Dyke show about we used to get 5 mins of commercials and 25 mins show. And I said ..” true, now we’re lucky to get 15 mins show time..guess that’s progress?” When you said hands down..what new phone? …I was confused. 😄

[@kai223noa6]

Also more episodes per season

[@lee-lee2418]

"Rob's" solo part at home is my favourite!! 😂

[@esmeraldagems9487]

Rob's beginning of the story of him talking to himself is pretty much how I tell a story. Long winded and never gets to the point. I love this show! 😂😂

[@DanielLiebert-i1p]

The long scenes of him alone, talking on phone etc was perhaps the longest in the series except maybe when he goes to write alone in a cabin. Both show how he could get joke after joke from props and simple situations. Carl Reiner loved that about him.

[@MrJoeybabe25]

This is classic! Not a weak spot in the whole show!

[@poetcomic1]

Even when Rob is looking forward to Citizen Kane and the fast talking car commercial is done by Carl Reiner.

[@catbriggs8362]

Finally - an episode I've never seen. My new favorite!

[@kevinvanmeter2264]

"Marine Corps" is played by delightful Barbara Stuart. Mrs. Dick Gautier.

Rob, a weekend is not long to be alone. Man up and tough it out.

Rob learned that, sometimes, it's best just to stay home, late at night. ONCE UPON A TIME IN AMERICA Someone asks Robert Deniro's character, "So, what have ya been doin' for the last 30 years? And, he quietly says, "Going to bed early."

¡No me canso de verlo! ¡Te amo, Dick Van Dyke!

[@bettycogswell9851]

It is to laugh. Love this show.

[@randilevson9547]

The used car salesman in the t.v. commercial when Rob is watching t.v., is none other than Carl Reiner. He did many of those announcer bits where he wasn't seen, on the show. Just listen.

[@josephmasterson3992]

Reiner announces Everett Sloane as one of the stars of Citizen Kane. Sloane was a guest star on the DVD Show episode "I'm No Henry Walden" and played Henrey Walden. I have no idea why Rob and the audience laugh when Dorothy Cominger's name is announced as a Citizen Kane co-star.

[@saran3214]

Barbara Stuart, Marine here, played Bunny in Gomer Pyle. Garry Marshall wrote the script, he created many tv programs including Laverne and Shirley, starring his sister Penny.

[@fredkruse9444]

Yikes -- I had assumed Penny was his wife.

[@saran3214]

@@fredkruse9444 She was married to Rob Reiner, son of Carl, just to make this even more related.

[@a.b.creator]

This episode reminds me a bit of The Seven Year Itch with Marilyn Monroe. Rob at home trying to figure out what he's to do without Laura there.

[@DanielLiebert-i1p]

The fast talking car dealer voice on the TV before Citizen Kane is CARL REINER. He did a LOT of voices in the series.

[@stephenstumbke1721]

Funny episode

Glad to see the Rebel flag isn't edited out on here or Catchy Comedy.

Love a chance to see Jackie Joseph as the stripper 'Alberta Schweitzer'. You may remember her as the giggling secretary while Sally was away. The 'stripper's costumes' were so chaste my grandmother wore more revealing two piece swimsuits at the beach.

[@saran3214]

She was married to Ken Barry at the time.

[@MrJoeybabe25]

Remember her on the Andy Griffith Show when Ernest T. Bass was learning himself some manners and became friendly with Jackie Joseph. He could hoist her!

[@robervar1097]

Ernest T Bass would have loved to see that

[@robervar1097]

@@MrJoeybabe25 same lol , How do u do Mrs Wileeeyy

[@esmeraldagems9487]

@Poetcomic1 I was about to make a comment about that. Also, she played Ernest T Bass girlfriend (Ramona Wiley) on the Andy Griffith Show and Howard Morris who played Ernest T directed a few episodes of the Dick Van Dyke show. It's funny how people are connected on these shows. I know the actors have contracts with the studio and all but it's fun to see the same actor playing different parts on the same show. I would totally love to be a character actor. 😄😄

[@Wonderpattypatty]

The way Laura acts after she says the girls reminds me of Diane Keaton’s scene on “Father of the Bride” when she’s visiting her husband George. Keaton made the same facial expressions & voice!! 🤓

[@kathrynoneill5862]

A lot of sitcoms took their storyline from this show. I have seen the husband missing his wife and getting in trouble in many shows.Other plots I have seen since I have been watching this show as well. It was a show ahead of its time.

[@johnfd0210]

6:00...The movies mentioned, CITY DESK and MAROONED seem to be made up titles; no listing for Evelyn Keyes in the first, and Myrna (Loy) never appeared in a film with Richard Arlen or Conrad Veidt.

[@MrMenefrego1]

I was actually wondering about that.

[@jb6712]

Carl Reiner didn't promote movies, for the most part, so would make up names (or his writers would), and then mention various actors of the time. Television in the 1950s, 60s and 70s was a lot stricter than now....and I wish they'd bring back the ban on foul and vulgar language!

[@Karen-nn6kg]

Great mention. I did a search on every one of those movie titles a long time ago: all fictitious.

[@amierichan7231]

This is an underrated classic. DVD just doing his thing on his own is priceless. But the confederate flag is interesting. . .

[@twistylox]

Where's season 5??

[@twistylox]

@@Ottestad1898 thanks for the reply. With the exception of an episode or two, the complete series was available here on KZbin for a long time. It seems filmrise now controls when and where the series will be uploaded. Unfortunately, they've forced other accounts to delete their copies, and have yet to upload season five. I could go to the store, but I have access to the internet.

[@sunnyscott4876]

The strippers are much like the 3 strippers in Gypsy, singing their classic number You Gotta Have a Gimmick!

[@IanSmith-z9h]

THIS is one of the best scripted episodes, primarily due to its opening: Laura visits Rob in jail. Rob tries to explain the timeline of the seemingly absurd events, as in starting @2:29 min. "... an attempted assault on an officer with a deadly weapon." ... "Rob, you had a gun?" ... "No, not exactly a gun." "Rob, what else can you should at anybody with?" "A cannon."

[@capacola262743]

here's how to answer a question, rob... why are you in jail? i went to visit my army buddy at the girly show. him and his friends were playing dice and the cops busted in and arrested everybody. THAT'S IT!! SIMPLE. TWO SENTENCES, NOT A HALF HOUR OF STAMMERING OUT USELESS GIBBERISH.
